I am the most popular character in Naruto!

Upon hearing Otohime's call, Chiaki immediately expanded the range of the restricted space until it completely enveloped Otohime before she stopped her actions.

Maintaining such a large restricted space immediately increased the pressure on Qianqiu, and Qianqiu's expression gradually turned ugly.

She had only just entered the Super Shadow level and had not yet fully mastered the power of the Super Shadow level.

Using overwhelming power to intimidate others is one thing, but precisely controlling one's own power is quite difficult.

"Absolutely!"

When Chiaki created a restricted space, enveloping Otohime and another dark figure within it, Obito felt the pressure on his body suddenly decrease, and he was even able to launch a counterattack.

His eyes darted around, and he immediately saw the true face of the dark figure.

Isn't this the very creature his father "summoned"—the one who is absolutely loyal to him?

All I can say in my heart is "MMP".

Big brother.

Can you please stop causing trouble?

Why not just focus on running the Akatsuki organization peacefully?

Yes, it's fine for you to go outside to find people, but why did you come to the Uchiha clan's side again?

Come on, why are you fighting with Qianqiu again?

Do you even realize you can't beat this woman?!

Since the Akatsuki organization was newly established, it needed a lot of intelligence and resources in all aspects, which was extremely laborious.

He possesses the best intelligence capabilities in the entire ninja world, allowing him to freely appear in various corners of the world. He wishes he could split himself into two people to use.

In this situation, even though Zetsu hadn't seen Obito for a short while, Obito started causing trouble on his own.

If Zetsu hadn't suddenly decided to ask someone in the organization, he probably would have lost that idiot Obito.

Moreover, the current situation is not very good. Chiaki has learned something incredible from the Land of Whirlpools, and this restricted space is indeed quite dangerous.

Especially when facing opponents weaker than themselves, the advantage of limiting space becomes increasingly apparent.

Aside from ninjas who specialize in physical training, under the oppression of class, it's unlikely anyone could escape.

There is only one way to break through this restricted space: make the person who initiated the restricted space unable to withstand it and release it on their own.

If you lack strength, make up for it with numbers.

The confinement space is fair; its effects will affect everyone who is surrounded by it.

"Are you an idiot?! Why don't you listen to me?!"

Zetsu cursed Obito bitterly, realizing that he had almost lost all hope of changing the ninja world!

Are all Uchiha clan ninjas this unreliable?

"Who knew that Qianqiu had broken through to the Super Shadow level..."

Obito's response was somewhat awkward; he was also still shaken. If Zetsu hadn't suddenly appeared, he probably would have really been in trouble this time.

"Hurry up and find a way out. Don't provoke Senju Chiaki until you have a sure chance of winning!"

He spoke urgently, constantly searching for a way to escape, but after Chiaki expanded the restricted space and surrounded Otohime, Otohime simultaneously supported the restricted space and merged with Chiaki.

The pressure on Chiaki from the confined space has been greatly reduced, with most of the pressure now falling on Otohime.

"Can you help me improve my strength?"

Obito, sensing the weakened restriction of the space, asked Zetsu a question.

"If I can break through just one more step, I'm confident I can break through!"

"What a joke! If I had the ability to help you break through, I would have given it to you already!"

Jue stared speechlessly at Obito. If he still had this ability, how could he not let Obito use it?

For Zetsu, Obito was his only hope, and he wished he could give him all his fighting strength.

If it weren't for Jue's special physique, which prevented him from cultivating on his own, he wouldn't have needed Obito. A thousand years would have been enough for an ordinary person to reach the pinnacle.

"You'd be better off thinking about how to break through in the heat of battle!"

Zetsu spoke to Obito with a hint of annoyance. His presence was merely to alleviate some of Obito's pressure. To be honest, the space-restricting effect wasn't that significant for Zetsu. If Obito wanted to leave, he could simply pay a price.

"Damn it..."

Obito gritted his teeth, bearing the pressure from Chiaki, his mind racing.

Shadow clone?

No, the shadow clones can't withstand the strain and can't last long.

Call for more players?

Obito looked away and saw that apart from a future Akatsuki member, there was only the useless Danzo. There was no one who could help him.

There are only two ways to break through the limitations of space.

Either strengthen your own abilities and break through on your own, or find someone else to crush you.

But now, Obito has already reached the peak of Kage level. To break through, he needs to become a Super Kage.

If this hurdle could be overcome so easily, Obito wouldn't have needed to agonize over it for so long; he could have just unleashed a super-kage-level attack and swept through the enemy ranks.

Finding someone is even more difficult; there's no one around, and in this vast world, you can only rely on yourself.

For a moment, he felt a sense of despair.

Even if Jue comes to help, is this stalemate the only option?

Time ticked by, and as Obito anxiously searched for a way out, Hiruzen Sarutobi's arrival shattered his hopes.

"Qianqiu, hold on a little longer!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi had clearly noticed the existence of the restricted space, and he landed directly next to Minato, calling out to Chiaki.

Compared to the young Minato, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew far more.

"Minato, if the two of us join forces to set up the Four Crimson Flames Formation, it can help Chiaki!"

As Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke in a deep voice, Minato felt a sense of relief and nodded to him with a complicated expression.

Minato was still somewhat dissatisfied with Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude of letting the Uchiha clan be wiped out, but now was not the time to talk about that.

Minato immediately coordinated with Hiruzen Sarutobi, with the two of them standing opposite Otohime and Chiaki, and the four of them surrounded Obito and Zetsu.

"Qianqiu, you know the Four Crimson Flame Formation, right?"

After Hiruzen Sarutobi and Minato took their positions, he called out to Chiaki in a deep voice.

"That's natural."

Chiaki understood Hiruzen Sarutobi's thoughts and immediately changed his gesture.

"not good!"

Jue saw through Qianqiu and the other three's thoughts, and his expression suddenly changed.

He glanced at Obito, gritted his teeth, grabbed Obito, and roared, "Obito, you'd better hide well these next few years!"

"Jue?"

A bad premonition suddenly rose in Obito's heart. Suddenly, everything went black before his eyes as Zetsu possessed him.

"Yin-Yang Escape! Spirit Possession! Assimilation!"

"Secret technique! The art of the mayfly!"

Chapter 571 A Peaceful World?

"Explain?"

"Is this your explanation to me? Hmm?"

Minato pointed at the Uchiha clan's stronghold, where blood flowed like a river, and roared at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He had never been so angry.

Minato Namikaze always held Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage who was highly trusted by the people of Konoha, in high esteem.

Minato always thought that Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had sacrificed so much for Konoha, was a great man.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi completely destroyed the impression he had in Minato's mind.

"The Uchiha clan plotted a rebellion, and their crime deserves to be punished."

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the blood-soaked ground, then turned his head away, unable to bear it, and sighed deeply.

Immediately, he raised his head firmly and said to Minato, "Minato, as the Hokage of Konoha, you need to understand one thing."

"Anyone who attempts to destroy Konoha is an enemy of Konoha!"

Even if this person is our relative, our sibling, or even our family member!

"Because this is the Shadow's responsibility!"

"After you become Hokage, you will no longer be the same Minato Namikaze, that ordinary ninja."

"He is someone who considers the interests of Konoha in everything he does, and is willing to sacrifice everything to protect Konoha!"

Minato stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi in disbelief, but upon closer inspection, he realized there was nothing wrong with it.

The Hokage is such a position; he is the core of Konoha.

If even the Hokage is unwilling to protect Konoha, then who else, what else, can protect Konoha?

But this kind of Naruto...

It's incredibly difficult to do!

"I hope that future Hokage will not encounter a situation like mine."

Minato spoke coldly to Hiruzen Sarutobi, who patted him on the shoulder and said with emotion, "Human greed is endless. Whenever someone has such thoughts, the Hokage must step forward to stop them. This is something that happens in every era."

"You can attribute the Uchiha clan massacre to me, but remember this: Minato."

"If I die and you encounter similar problems in the future, then it will be your turn to bear the consequences."
